2083/2025 Const. P. Allan Khan (Petitioner) V/S Province of Sindh & Others (Respondent)
Sindh High Court
Bench: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Muhammad Karim Khan Agha, Hon'ble Mr. Justice Adnan-ul-Karim Memon(Author)
Order Date: 07-AUG-25
The transfers and postings are administrative matters and do not violate civil servants' fundamental rights. Supreme Court precedents on the subject issue are clear as such this Court affirmed that civil servants have no legal right to a specific posting. Transfer orders are an administrative prerogative of the competent authority, intended to ensure the smooth functioning of the department. These orders can only be challenged if they are issued for "extraneous reasons" or violate statutory rules, neither of which is proven in this case as the reasons are obvious as pointed out and discussed supra, as such this Court cannot intervene. Besides, the petitioner's transfer after a few months is not considered excessive. 11. The petitioner failed to demonstrate any illegality or malice in the transfer order, and therefore, this petition lacks merit, which is accordingly dismissed.Full judgment text for this case is not yet available on Pakistan Law Reports.
